The participants blood parameters, dietary intake, gut microbiota composition, body mass and composition, resting energy expenditure, lifestyle factors and psychological factors will be determined and measured.

Clinical Trial Description

Vegetarian and vegan diets have been shown to have health benefits on preventing cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes and cancer. They are both gaining popularity in public. Ketogenic diet has also been very popular, especially due to its effect on weight loss and blood glucose parameters. To our knowledge there, are no studies that compare long-term effects of all three diets and omnivorous diets with regards to health parameters and gut microbiota composition. The aim of the proposed study is to investigate the link between different diets and health parameters, such as parameters related to longevity, inflammation, stress and gut microbiota composition. The study is designed to compare different diets and their relationship with the body as a whole. ;
